Jo Malone London introduces Amber Labdanum, a fragrance that captures the warmth of Andalusia’s golden hour — the moment when the sun lights up the hills surrounding Granada and fills the air with the aromatic resin of wild cistus.
Born from this radiant light, the fragrance blends the natural depth of labdanum with the sunlit freshness of southern Spain and the contemporary elegance of Jo Malone London. The composition opens with a lively burst of bitter orange, gently transitioning into a warm heart of labdanum, whose resinous, sensual richness defines the soul of the perfume. In the base, amber, soft hints of vanilla, and roasted oak unfold, leaving a lasting impression on the skin like a delicate golden sheen.
Amber Labdanum speaks in a quiet yet powerful language of luxury — fluid, long-lasting and touchingly refined.
The inspiration emerged from the landscapes surrounding the Alhambra, a place that, as Céline Roux notes, has always evoked the desire to capture its magic in scent form. In collaboration with perfumer Yann Vasnier, she created a composition that honors the historical significance of labdanum as a precious resin, while reinterpreting it through a contemporary, warm and enveloping structure.
Entering the Cologne Intense collection, Amber Labdanum becomes the new star of a line known for its richness and sensuality, crafted from rare ingredients. Available in 50 ml and 100 ml bottles from January 26, it will be sold worldwide in Jo Malone London boutiques and online — created for those who seek a fragrance filled with southern warmth, refined depth and enduring golden elegance.
